OTTAWA EMANCIPATION GEL
EBRATrON AUG. I.

There were at least 5000 persons
on the grounds. Excursions arrived
from Kansas City, Mo-, Wyandotte,
Lawrence, and Fort Scott, Kansas.
There were Is coaches from Kansas
CITY. II from Wyandotte, 4 from
Lawrence, 3 from Fort Scott, all COM
pletely full of people. At the grounds
there were eloquent addresses by dis
tipguished speakers, notable among
them were Hon. Robert E. Smalls of
South Carolina, of war fame. At
night there was choir contest held
at Barker's Opera House, and in
which Lawrence came off with the
honors, having won the first prize as
the best singers.
One of the most attractive features
Of the day was the beautiful sword
drill by the Fort Scott Sireen Com
mandery, of eleven young ladies, un-
der the command of Rev. G. Z.
Coins, Baptist minister, which was
rendered with precision and skill
which reflects great credit upon the
commander.

REPUBLICANS MAKE ENOR-
NOUS GAINS IN DEMO
CRATIC KENTUCKY.

A very fair Idea of the situation Is
constrained in the estimate Of the
Courier Journal, which says; Addi-
tioual returns this morning DO not
give any indications of the ground
swell. As far as we eau Judge the
democratic losses are due to the con-
fidence and Indifference in our party
and an unusually good organization
on the part of the republicans. The
republicans voted and the democrats
stayed at home. Our returns are from
tifty-six counties, which cast sixty per
cent of the whole vote Of the state.
These tifty-six counties show a loss
from Cleveland's majority of 1900.
If the ratio of gains and lossos con-
tinues the same for the remainder
forty per cent, the net democratic
loss will be 1880. Buckner's ma
iority over Bradley is p 600 The re-
publicans are claiming better things
than this from the mountain counties
but some of their best counties have
reported. The majority is not a.
large as our pride demands. Demo
crats have only themselves to blame.
The Commercials summary j. as
follows: Seventy-eight counties have
reported so far, there now being

Settling an Old Feud.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, August .
A tragedy occurred at little village
in Faulkner county, twenty-five miles
from this place, yesterday. For
some time past feud has existed be
tween Jno and Joe Evans, brothers,
and Ike Medith. Yesterday they
adjourned to the adjacent woods to
settle the matter. While John Evans
was denouncing Medith, the latter
shot him. Joe Evans hurried to his
brothers assistance and he, too. was
shot. Reports received to might say
neither will live until morning.
Medith cody walked away and has
not since been found.

Those employed in the store OF Messrs. w Ia.

,hnut five O'Clock this morning when they
onsued the building to find that the place
had been burglariously entered during the
night and the safe broken open and robbed.

aimed that the burglars had scaled the

through the door into the combination lCck
near the knob, when, by inserting q
file or q piece of steel, they struck the
lock with sledge hammer, there
nv breaking it loose from its fasteDings,
which rendered the door easily opened.

morning, identified the articles IS his prop

the burglars used in opening the safe
were carried away by them. There is no
clue to the robbers, and the fact that the
store should have been robbed, situated as
i: is on a corner opposite the City Hall and
within two doors of the Hydrauiion engine
house, in which locality people are passing
nearly all night, without attracting atten-
lion, seems surprising. The police are ex
